The image of the object is 8cm to the left of the lens (D)

What is the image of an object?

The image of an object is said to be the location where light rays from that object intersect with a mirror by reflection.

It is calculated thus:

1÷v = 1÷f - 1÷u

<h3>How to calculate the image of an object</h3>

From the formula

1÷v = 1÷f - 1÷u

<h3>Where </h3>

V = image distance fromthe object

U = object

f = focal length

Substitute the values

1÷v = 1÷8 - 1÷ 4

1÷v = - 1÷8

Make v the subject of formula

v = -8cm

Therefore, the image of the object is 8cm to the left of the lens (D)

A 12.0 cm object is 9.0 cm from a convex mirror that has a focal length of -4.5 cm. What is the distance of the image from the m

Rasek [7]

Answer:

- 3 cm

Explanation:

From the mirror formula;

1/f = 1/v + 1/u ; where f is the focal length, v is the image distance, and u is the object distance.

1/-4.5 = 1/9 + 1/v

1/v = -1/4.5 - 1/9

= -1/3

Therefore;

v = -3 cm

Hence;

Image distance is - 3cm

what is the percent efficiency of a light bulb that emits 14 joules of light for every 60 joules of electric energy thst enters

jasenka [17]

If you're using the bulb as a source of light, then it's. 14/60 = 23.3% efficient.
If you're using it to heat a bird nest or a hamster cage, then it's. 46/60 = 76.7% efficient !
It just depends on your point of view, and what you consider 'useful' output.

A clay vase on a potter's wheel experiences an angular acceleration of 5.69 rad/s2 due to the application of a 16.0-n m net torq

Digiron [165]

The equivalent of the Newton's second law for rotational motions is:
$\tau = I \alpha$
where
$\tau$ is the net torque acting on the object
$I$ is its moment of inertia
$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration of the object.

Re-arranging the formula, we get
$I= \frac{\tau}{\alpha}$
and since we know the net torque acting on the (vase+potter's wheel) system, $\tau=16.0 Nm$ , and its angular acceleration, $\alpha = 5.69 rad/s^2$ , we can calculate the moment of inertia of the system:
$I= \frac{\tau}{\alpha}= \frac{16.0 Nm}{5.69 rad/s^2} =2.81 kg m^2$
